In the recent weeks, there is the start of a trend for ‘Director’s Cuts’ arriving to PlayStation 5 for Sony Interactive Entertainment titles. Already, there happened to be the teaser for Death Stranding: Director’s Cut back in June during Summer Game Fest. Additionally, there also happened to be an ESRB rating for Ghost of Tsushima: Director’s Cut as well.

Earlier this month, developer Sucker Punch Productions officially unveiled the new iteration of the 2020 title sharing that the game will arrive for both PlayStation 4 & 5 with the new Iki Island experience. And alike Ghost of Tsushima on ESRB, a separate rating for Death Stranding: Director’s Cut too which did add some new context to the game.

During the recently held PlayStation State of Play showcase on Thursday, Kojima Productions reveals Death Stranding: Director’s Cut is scheduled to launch in late September. You can watch the new trailer in the video below:

“The content that we’re introducing to Death Stranding Director’s Cut was all built and developed from the ground up, following the launch of the original Death Stranding, says Jay Boor, Head of Publishing for Kojima Productions. “Everything from the Firing Range area, to the additional missions, to the all-new Fragile Circuit racing mode, the aim was to introduce new content that would further expand the world within Death Stranding while enhancing the core game experience.

“The new content isn’t simply bolted on either, it’s been carefully woven into the core game experience and will be made available through discovery as you play. Most of the new content is fairly easy to find, though there are some bits and pieces that will take some time to find and unlock.

“Although I can’t really go into too much detail about the new missions and extended storyline at this point, what I can share is that a few hints have been added to the latest trailer we’ve released that give a few clues as to what you can expect – we’ll have more to share on that in the weeks to come – though I can confirm now that all the Half-Life and Cyberpunk 2077 content introduced to the PC version of Death Stranding will also be available in Death Stranding Director’s Cut.”

Kojima Productions presses that previously exclusive content like Cyberpunk 2077 crossover DLC will also be included in the new version of the game. Added, the deluxe edition can be a separate purchase for those that already own the PlayStation 4 version for an additional $10, the developer shares.
